I’ve been using kickstart via http/pxe on our rhel4 servers for a
while now and have recently created a rhel5 image on the same
kickstart server. I’ve replaced the vmlinuz and initrd files and can’t
get it to work. It stops when it is looking for the .discinfo file in
the disc1 directory of my rhel5 image repository (which isn’t there).
My rhel5 image is identical to the dvd image as provided by RedHat.
Any ideas?
Thanks

What are you using for the source URL?
RHEL5 is split into a few different repos, and (what I do in Cobbler
anyway) is use the Server one for the main install tree and add the
other repos with the "repo" kickstart
directive, if you need to use them. (I think "VT" is one of those).
This way the main install tree gets set up correctly and you can also
get to the other repos as well, because RHEL5 Anaconda supports
attaching to those other repositories in kickstart.
So, I'm guessing that your install source probably isn't pointing at the
right place. You could try tweaking it, or you could perhaps just use
"cobbler import" and it will
set that up automagically :)
